The old lady was furious. She pointed towards Darven and said, âCan you be any more shameless, you
old geezer? Do you not know how to respect your masters? Even if heâs your teacher for only a day,
you should regard him like your father for the rest of your life. Your master taught and helped you to
finish your apprenticeship, yet you have forgotten about him. You didnât even come back to attend your
masterâs funeral after his death. You ungrateful rascal, you even want to take your masterâs sign.
Where does your confidence come from? Where did you get the balls to do this?â
Darven only huffed at the old lady, despite her questioning. âItâs none of your business, ainât it? Old hag,
stop butting your nose in this. Careful, or you might die on the spot!â
âWhat did you say?â The old lady was so furious that she was about to explode on the spot.
She was a famous traditional doctor. She was a person of virtue and prestige at normal times. When
did she ever get insulted like this? She panted heavily, not being able to say a word.
Darven chuckled as he said, âSee? I was right, huh? You donât have many days left in this world, old
hag, yet youâre jumping up and down. What for? Could it be that youâre Old Jamesâs ex or something?
Donât tell me, this young girl here is your love child?â
The old ladyâs lips were trembling as her eyes widened. She looked as if she was about to pass any
minute now. Just then, Cheryl whispered something into Jamesâs ears. James was overjoyed as he
turned to look at Alex. Then, he laughed out loud and pulled the old lady aside, smiling smugly at
Darven. âDidnât you say that youâd throw us out and wonât let us hold the medical exchange? Go ahead
then! Hurry and do it!â
Darven froze for a brief moment as he didnât understand why James was suddenly so cocky.
Well, just a while ago, James was panicking when he threatened him with this, he looked as if the sky
was crashing down. James could not be blamed for it. He was known as the legendary doctor in
California and had a great reputation. Money whatsoever was no longer important when he had
reached such a status.
Reputation was only the most important thing.
He was the current president of the Medical Club of California and also the honorary principal of the
Medical School of California.
This time, he was the one who single handedly brought about Triangle River Delta Medical Exchange
in California.
In this way, his personal reputation would be even more profound. It had attracted a number of famous
doctors within and outside of Triangle River Delta.
However, all the participating members had arrived on the day of the official event. If they were to be
kicked out by the hotelâs management, all Jameâs hard work would be all for naught.
When people looked at him, their first impression would view him as an unreliable person.
Then, his reputation would be ruined and he would end tip as a laughing stock.
However, how long had it been?
His attitude had done a 180 degree change!
âOld James, you need to think properly. To ruin your great title as the legendary doctor of California for
the sake of Ganoderma, thatâs not quite worth it.â Darvenâs expression darkened. His goal was not to
ruin Jamesâs reputation, but to acquire the sign of Ganoderma.
James huffed coldly as he said, âIt doesnât matter, Iâm willing to do it.â
Darven squinted his eyes. âFine! Since youâre so stubborn, donât blame me for being cruel then.â
He immediately took his phone out to call Matthew. However, no one picked up!
James said with a smile, âCome on now, weâre waiting for your nephew to kick us out! Youâve said
those words, yet you couldnât kick us out in the end. Wouldnât you just be a pile of bullcrap? Who would
dare to let you cure them in the future?â
Darven furrowed his eyebrows. He consecutively called his nephew thrice and his forehead started
sweating, yet nobody answered.
âWhatâs the matter? Weâve had a deal. How can he let me down at the critical moment?â
Just then, Alex spoke up, âLooks like your nephew wouldnât be able to kick us out now. How about this?
Let me help you ask, letâs see what heâs doing right now!â
As he spoke, he then dialed Azureâs number into his phone.
